I have a special wish. It's not one that will ever be realized, but imagining it makes me happy in all my happy places. I just wish that for every spam message that annoys someone, the person who generated that spam message gets a slap in the head. Nothing violent, nothing injury inducing.  Just one of those smacks to the back of the head.  Like this. The say that spammers spam because for every thousand people they annoy, they get one person who buys whatever they're selling.  I just like to picture the results if those 1000 annoyances result in 1000 smacks to the back of the head. Oh, and we should also get to slap the people who buy the spammer's snake oil, too. It's a pretty picture, innit?
